Abu al-Walid Muhammad ibn Ahmad ibn Rushd of Cordoba — Averroes to the Latins; he devoted himself to Aristotle, translated him into Arabic and wrote some fifty works including Fasl al-maqal, Tahafut al-tahafut against al-Ghazali, Bidayat al-mujtahid and the Kulliyyat on medicine; the Almohad caliph al-Mansur honoured him, then exiled him to Marrakesh and had some of his books burned, then relented — he died there in 1198 and his body was carried to Cordoba.
